so I'm finding myself in labor about to give birth to a 10 pound kidney stone. Is there anything I can do than just wait it out and in pain? i've passed them before but this is the first one since my surgery.

I have never had these, Dan is back today at some point and just went through this.  You need lots of pain meds and fluids, get that bad boy out of there.  I am so sorry Aaron.  Send Dan a PM and see what he has to say.

I just feel like someone is just taking a dagger and jabbing me in the back......not to mention dizziness and cold sweats....I'm drinking as much as I can so I can keep going to the bathroom.......but i won't even describe to you what that's like! LOL

Hey Aaron,
I have been fortunate enough as well to have never had to experience kidney stones.  From everything I've gathered, it's not a very pleasant experience.  I wish I had some words of wisdom for you bud, all I can say is hang in there and it will pass (pun intended).  After all you've been through, you won't have any problem getting through this.  Stay strong my friend.

OHHHH YUCK! I'm sorry to hear you are going through that! I have never had them but I thought that it was all about liquids to help pass it sooner. Poor thing!!!!

well what used to help was a lot of cranberry juice.....but since I can't really have juice right now, Im drinking everything else I can get my hands on that can be viewed as a diuretic (coffee included)
